One of the commonest problems faced by family historians is that ancestors suddenly vanish from the records often for no seeming reason. This thought-provoking presentation looks at why this might be so.
It discusses three main reasons:
1. the genealogist might have made a mistake in their research;
2. there is a problem with the records. Either the clerk made a mistake recording names or the records no longer exist;
3. the ancestor may have genuinely gone missing, perhaps emigrating overseas or becoming a tramp. There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions and share experiences.
